I've had more success with a similar tool, called ocra [1]

Do I need to pay to distribute my free software for Windows?
So, the problem I have is quite complicated... I'm packaging a Ruby application. I'm using Ocra for this. What it does is create a self-extracting compressed file containing the Ruby interpreter, any gems and your scripts. This self-extracting behavior is most likely what sometimes triggers the antivirus. Searching for answers in the Ocra GitHub issues, I found posts saying that it will eventually happen and there's no way to definitively fix it. I don't know of any other simple ways to distribute Ruby applications unfortunately.

I do see some projects in the "used by" section, but when I look at them, it doesn't seem they're actually using the library. Some of them have it in their dependencies, but are not actually using it. This is the only actual game made by someone else that I know of.
What are some alternatives?
